UPS, Uninterruptible Power Supply
A UPS is a device that allows you to continue to work normally in case of power failure. Also protect your equipment voltage rises or falls, frequency variation, harmonic distortion, electrical noise and fluctuations that can cause serious damage.
UPSs have a range determined by their available battery power consumption of connected equipment. A higher consumption UPS will require greater, equal greater consumption UPS will allow greater operational autonomy.
We recommend protecting your electronics and machines important and / or sensitive UPS UPS units, in addition to providing autonomy protect against supply disruptions. Do not take chances!
Types of UPS:
OffLine or Passive Standby.
They are the most basic and economical equipment. They target home PCs protection.
simple operation. Straightforward installation. filters the input current and only in the event of power failure.
LineInteractive or interactive.
Midrange UPS, targeting professional environments. Especially suitable in places with electrical problems, frequent cuts or oscillations. Business parks, industrial, old urban centers and rural areas.
The output voltage is permanently stabilized but only come into operation in case of power failure.
Online or double conversion.
High-end UPS, targeting critical environments. Specially designed to protect sensitive equipment to electrical disturbances, medical environments, central servers and critical operating equipment and high availability.
The voltage equipment permanently uses UPS batteries whether or not power failure. The output current is regenerated always going from AC to DC and then back to the DC-AC (double conversion) obtaining an optimal pure tension fully stabilized.
Recommendations and examples:
- PC with monitor 15 "or 17"
To protect a PC a Back-UPS, if desired PowerChute software and PlugPlay then a Back-UPS Pro Both VA 420-500 power is enough to keep the PC running about 10 minutes without electricity. If you want longer or PC peripherals has recommended want to protect 650 VA model.
- Server NT/2000-Novell-Unix-Linux
We recommend the APC Smart-UPS model and allows to protect your server, monitor 15-17 ", Hub-Swith and Router. If the server is simple (single processor and hard drive) then you can also protect a PC monitor 15 -17 "simultaneously for 10-30 minutes. More time or more next to the PC server recommended the 1000 VA unit. For multiple servers or critical equipment is recommended Matrix model.
When you want to connect more than 4 devices to a Smart-UPS or Back-UPS Pro, or more than 2 to a Back-UPS requires a power strip connected to the UPS power with special connector.
All UPS small carry two cables PC / Monitor to UPS. To connect two devices to the two connectors from the UPS must purchase separate cables.

Note: This is an excerpt of models and features. For special situations ask us specific project and budget.
Important note: All UPSs over 5000VA's not include cables that need to be plugged directly into the electrical panel by an electrician. The characteristics of this cable will find them in the manual.
